My demo scene sellout

category: general [glöplog]
This whole thread helps me to remember of a close friend of mine who was a very talented hiphop DJ and who sold all his gear (including Technics MK2 limited edition turntables, high-end mixing board, computer ....) and vynils (lots of them. Rare things bought in many stores, even in the US and so...) for a gal.

He just gave up everything in less than 1 week. Unbelievable.
I met him 6 months later and he had even started to listen to pop-rock music and his language wasn't rude anymore. o_O

Well, all I still own from this period is some remixes we did together with him scratching with his turntables. :(

Girls.

...but we're all slaves of our distant past. Animal attraction you know?
Still, I wouldn't stop going rock climbing and sell all my gear for my girlfriend...

@Oxb : In fact, it's not the girls... It's the godamn males ! :) We have a built-in vulnerability in our brain, something like a "cuteness overflow" exploit. And it can easily crash the kernel. Girls don't even know about this, they're just naturally gifted to use it.

Shit happens. Once you're warned, though, the sanest behaviour is :
1-Download patch
2-Install

we're probably unsigned and have no goddamn flag to tell us...

Actually males do usually have a pole, but I don't know anything about a "flag" or something... :)

Wow, so selling all the stuff for a girl can actually have a good effect too :)

No email. His site expired. We have a name! We can search for an email and ask if he's still with the girl :D
It would be cool to know to help firing the discussion.

Lol. Thanks you people really care about me. I was just searching the Interweb for danny and stefanie and found this old thread I started years ago. Great memories come back up about my life before I had a girlfriend. Yes I'm still together with the one I gave up my demo scene life for. I remember when I took a photo of a picture she made for me (a heart with a bunny silhouette) and you painted all these kind things into the heart.

What has changed? A lot. Not everything. I'm still working with computers ten hours a day as a senior it-security engineer. If someone needs some help with firewalls and VPN just drop me a mail. Got a Mac Mini at home which my girlfriend uses, too. Too much things to do at work and at home. I catch myself very often when I wish I had more time just to stay where I am and watch things moving on.

I don't regret the change my girlfriend brought into my life. I'll marry her in October this year. Planning on some kidsters. Two at least. Planning on buying a house. I found that other sceners I spent a good time with are not updating their websites anymore. People like Milan 'Acumen' Kolarovic (www.milankolarovic.com) or Marco 'xeNusion' Siegel (www.xenusion.com). Great ones, won't forget them every after all the years.

I will never drop everything for a girl like that. Mainly because I don't feel like getting a girlfriend.

Yet he still lurks, and remembers his password. I think Steaphanie has dumped him.

On the other hand he seems to have missed xenusion at Linger In Shadows.
